from a single dock in 12-months. Averaging over a pound of non-organic debris captured every week from one location.

Floating debris in our waterways isn’t just an eyesore — it can foul propellers, clog jet intakes and strainers, and impact marine life.South Florida canals are seeing increasing amounts of floating debris — bottles, foam, plastic fragments, and construction waste drifting through our waterways.DockMaid passively intercepts floating debris at the dock-level — capturing measurable amounts of debris each month.No engine or motor, consumes no fuel or electricity, makes no noise. Designed for simple deployment, quick servicing, and continuous use.

RESULTS FROM DOCKMAID DEPLOYMENT

53+ lbs of non-organic debris collected and removed from a single dock over 12 months

With initial deployment ongoing, DockMaid is expanding into a pilot program to test performance across multiple locations.A limited number of waterway residents & small marinas in Southeast Pompano Beach are being invited to participate.

HOW DOCKMAID WORKS

• Passively intercepts floating debris drifting along docks and seawalls
• Lightweight, simple unit tethers to your dock and is anchored in position
• Self-adjusts with tide, current, and wind
• Easy to service — retrieve using the tether or boat hook
• Remove, empty, and reseat the collection net
• Release the unit and allow it to return to its anchored position
• Simple flip design reduces marine growth and keeps maintenance quick
• No complicated installation or downtime
• No engine or motor — no fuel, no electricity, no noise, and no harm to wildlife

What is DockMaid?
A compact, tethered dockside Interceptor that collects floating debris such as plastics and foam before it drifts out to the coastline.Is DockMaid available yet?
A working prototype is currently being tested. The first MVP units will be piloted in 2026.Does it need power?
No — DockMaid works passively. It uses the natural movement of wind, tide, and current to guide floating debris into the collection net.Is DockMaid patented?
DockMaid is patent pending. A U.S. provisional patent application has been filed to protect its design and functionality.
